o.k. I have a HUGE issue (for me at least) I have got so many contact (and especially calendar entries) on my Palm which I want (and somewhat need) to transfer to my Pearl

Installed the BB Desktop with thee CD. Synchronized the Palm and then opened up the transfer file in the BB desktop. Both devices are plugged into the laptop and active. Click on transfer..starts transferring the calendar Palm Desktop opens...everything looks good,until 4-5 bars into it (maybe a 1/4) and that's it.. Program not responding. Alt, CTL, Del..killing applications blah blah blah..
I tried restarting, tried to have mass-storage on, mass-storage off. I even just let it do it's thing for hours ...which didn't work either.
